Only one choice

Same with GMC (which I think is General Motors Company) trucks. These were at times sold alongside Pontiac vehicles at Pontiac dealers to give the Pontiac division of GMH a full range of vehicles to allow them to compete with Chevrolet. They were essentially an "upmarket" version of the same thing in the Chevrolet range, often how a Pontiac was seen except many GMC's were really just a Chev with "shinier" bits on it. So because both brands (GMC Trucks and (General Motors) Chevrolet) are a GM brand does the GMC automatically get seen as a Chevrolet? Or vice versa, the Chevy as a GMC? They are far closer together than a Holden and a HSV.

Just my take on it anyway.

GMC is the acronym for General Motors Coach, their bus truck division.

I'm not certain that is the case Terry. It appears GM outright purchased Yellow Coach and created the GM Truck and Coach division in the 40's (they'd part owned Yellow since the 20's). But the GMC Truck name or marque had been around since 1912. According to a few sources on the 'web in any case.
